Is it normal that music makes me cry sometimes? especially if buzzed?

There's a recording of Bach's Aria from the Goldberg Variations BWV988 played by Ton Koopman and YoYo Ma. It has literally made me sob. The cover of Imagine by A Perfect Circle also does this to me. There are other pieces of music that make me cry sometimes. If this is the case for you, what music makes you emotional to that degree.

    first time i ever cried listening to music was when i heard Fantasie Impromptu (Op.66) by Chopin. i have no idea why it happened but it did, so i just let it all out. :)

    Bach's Air on the G String is actually one of my favorite music pieces and just like you, I've teared a few times listening to certain interpretations of it. The flow of this piece is just so gentle, warm and pure. Johann Sebastian Bach had two big influences in his life. Antonio Vivaldi and God. Bach has even said himself that God was the biggest driving force behind his music.

    I'm not connected to any human interpretation of God in any Religious Books but I almost believe in him when listening to the Air on the G String.
